KBK monorail/single girder crane with upright support
Structural composition
Support column：High-strength steel structure, yellow epoxy paint, floor-mounted design, supporting the main beam of the track.
KBK Track Main Beam：Enclosed cold-formed steel rails, standard section splicing, can be extended indefinitely.
Running trolley：Built-in low-friction rollers allow for longitudinal movement along the track, making it easy to push.
Electric hoist：The electric chain hoist, suspended below the trolley, is responsible for vertical lifting.
End beams and connectors：High-strength bolt connections ensure track alignment accuracy and overall rigidity.
Power supply system：Powered by a sliding contact line or flat cable, with optional safety sliding line.
Control System：Flashlight switch (button box) control, selectable remote control/dual speed/frequency conversion.
Working principle
The electric hoist is responsible for the vertical lifting and lowering of materials; the trolley drives the hoist longitudinally along the KBK track; in the case of a single-beam design, the main beam moves along the longitudinal track at the top of the column, and the two work together to form an X/Y bidirectional planar coverage, which can accurately deliver the workpiece to any position within the work area. The entire operation is completed by the operator through a hand flashlight or remote control, without the need for a professional crane operator.
Core advantages
Modular assembly : Standard parts are assembled, and tracks can be lengthened, workstations can be added, and layouts can be modified at any time. Production line adjustments do not require re-procurement.
Independent of factory structure : Self-supporting with ground-mounted columns, it can be installed in factories and rented workshops without crane beams.
Lightweight and labor-saving : The low coefficient of friction of the track rollers results in low pushing force when fully loaded, and a single person can easily position it. It is more labor-saving than a manual forklift and more flexible than a crane.
Low headroom design : compact structure, low requirements for factory height, and full utilization of existing space.
Safe and reliable : The hoist is equipped with upper and lower limit switches, overload protection, and power failure braking; the end of the track is equipped with a stop device.
Economical and efficient : The cost of construction and maintenance is far lower than that of traditional bridge cranes, and the investment payback period is short.
Quiet and clean : Low operating noise and no exhaust emissions, suitable for long-term indoor operation.
Application scenarios

Recommended products
Underslung KBK multi-rail parallel flexible crane
This equipment system consists of multiple parallel KBK standard rail suspensions, with an independent electric chain hoist and hook installed under each rail. Each rail section is marked with its rated load, allowing multiple workstations to lift simultaneously without interfering with each other, completely eliminating the waiting dilemma of "the whole workshop vying for one overhead crane".
KBK multi-span covered crane with uprights
The entire set of equipment adopts a self-supporting structure with ground-mounted steel columns and red high-strength steel rails laid out in a crisscross pattern. It can span over multiple CNC machine tools to form a covered rail network. One crane can serve the loading and unloading operations of the entire group of machine tools, eliminating the need to configure separate hoisting equipment for each machine tool.
KBK Combined Rail Conveying System
The equipment utilizes a floor-mounted, self-supporting column structure, eliminating the need to rely on the facility's existing steel framework; it offers flexible installation and convenient assembly or disassembly. Featuring a red-and-yellow warning color scheme, it is highly visible and ensures safety while blending seamlessly into the workshop environment.
